Ginger Milk Curd 52+n1

On Wednesday 4.sep.2024, we completed and ticked a box in the list of things-to-do.

*** Zhao Ji Desserts One Utama ***

Went to this desserts eatery just to eat this special hot ginger milk curd which is prepared by heating up milk to a certain temperature and pouring it into fresh ginger juice to get milk curd which has texture similar to very soft milk pudding.

"The optimum curdling temperature is 70 °C (158 °F).[4] In the meantime, stir the ginger juice thoroughly. When the milk temperature decreases to around 70–75 °C (158–167 °F), pour the milk quickly into the middle of the ginger juice. Wait for two to three minutes. The milk will then be curdled, and may be eaten with a spoon. "

The above info is from the link below:

4.17 pm - the milk curd MYR 8+ is very soft and warm. The ginger taste is strong and gives a comforting hot sensation so I cannot detect any milk taste due to the strong ginger taste but still he doesn't dare to try this milk curd because he says his body cannot handle dairy products. I like this dessert so I will eat it again.

4.16 pm - the staff will pour the hot milk from a kettle into the ginger juice in the bowl in front of the customer and then need to wait for the sand in the small hour glass to fall into the bottom compartment for the hot milk to curdle before eating the solid milk curd.

4.08 pm - he ordered hot green beans tangerine peel tong sui MYR 9+ which he likes because he likes the taste of tangerine peel in tong sui and the green beans are soft and not very sweet.

I also ordered cold herbal jelly with red beans MYR 9+ and add-on mango MYR 3+ so total price for 3 items is MYR 31.75 nett.

Rasmalai

The previous Thursday I bought a lot of food from Passage Thru India restaurant in Damansara via grab delivery. One of the food items is a popular dessert named Rasmalai. MYR 9.90 for one portion of 3.

Rasmalai is made from milk. For more information, please refer to this recipe on how to make a delicious rasmalai. Recipe link in full text below:

https://www.indianhealthyrecipes.com/rasmalai-recipe-easy-rasmalai-in-10-mins-diwali-recipes/

I haven't eaten it before so I am curious to try it. There are 3 flattened balls made of curdled milk inside the thickened liquid milk. The yellow colour is supposed to be from saffron.

Sweet and milky. I ate one on Thursday and kept the remaining two in the fridge. If you like condensed milk, you will like this dessert.

*** Saturday 14 November 2020 d242 ***

0743 breakfast to clear the remaining zhar yuk muk Yee rice bought on Monday which is 5 days ago. Added choy sum aka sawi.

0820 my portion of breakfast.

1138 whenever we passed by friendship cafe on a Saturday, I must buy this dai gao mein from the nearby food truck. MYR 1.50 nett. Ate it in the car on the way home cos I am not the one driving.

1154 not my lunch of roast chicken and siew yoke rice from friendship cafe. Can't remember how much it costs. Should be around MYR 7 to 8. Also bought 3 siew baos at MYR 5 nett and one slice of steamed brown sugar cake at MYR 1.50 nett.

1312 my lunch. I had to clear this remaining portion of chicken briyani rice bought from Passage Thru India restaurant on Thursday, 2 days ago.

1318. I ate it directly from the fridge because I can't be bothered to heat it up since I am ok to eat it at room temperature after it has been out from the fridge for 30 mins. Flavourful, a tiny bit spicy only so I am ok. No MSG since I was not thirsty after that. Can you see the two pieces of chicken in the photo? This packet of briyani rice has about 5 to 6 pieces of chicken in it and the whole packet weighed about 600g so we ate it for three meals including this one before finishing it.

1509 the remaining two milk curdle, Rasmalai. 

1511 ate both of them and put the remaining thickened milk saffron liquid back into the fridge to be used as bread spread for the next few days. Took a nap after this lunch and dessert.

1817 dinner for two pax. 3jc from friendship cafe MYR 7 nett.

1837 ate the chicken pie MYR 2.80 Nett bought from the stall outside Sepetang coffee shop in taman Desa on Sunday, 6 days ago.

1837 - blurred photo of the fillings - small cubes of chicken meat and carrots. I prefer beef fillings. Can't put my finger on the taste. Let me buy one for my friend tomorrow and she will be able to describe the taste of this filling and I will update this section.

After that I ate the one and only remaining piece of fried items I bought on Sunday, 6 days ago which is a piece of deep fried tapioca. I feel good to be able to clear 3 food items from my fridge on this day. No more eating after 1900.

Updates on Sunday 15 Nov 2020 1820:

My friend description of the chicken pie taste:

"got oyster sauce, usual 5 spice powder, pepper,  bit bit curry on the miniest chic nanocubes, soy sauce  potatoes,  carrot,  onion.

Very thin pastry with shortening that leaves an oil waxy taste in mouth.

 First impression is siewbao with a much, much, much, lighter taste,  not that saucy.  Overall ok, can mask as healthier siew bao."

Kurma Fresh Milk

After reading STP post about the delicious yogurt and fresh milk, I went and bought a bottle each to try.

I like that the fresh milk with dates (kurma) has zero added sugar and that I feel like I am eating cendol dessert when I drank it due to its taste which STP described in his post as similar to gula apong ice cream. I would not like a cendol dessert if it does not have this "gula apong ice cream" taste.

The yogurt has a sourish taste which I also like but the mixed berries flavour reminded me of cough syrup due to what  I suspect to be the cherry flavour. I guess strawberry yogurt would taste better.

My friend who does not like the taste of milk, is able to tolerate and drink this Cafe Latte milk due to its strong coffee taste which masked the taste of milk. I like it too due to the bitter coffee taste. Now I can understand why these bottles of fresh milk are so popular.

A 700g bottle of fresh date (kurma) milk costs MYR 7.82 nett whereas a 700g bottle of fresh coffee milk costs MYR 9.83 nett. The small bottle of mixed berries yogurt (200g) costs MYR 2.33 nett at Aeon Supermarket. After trying them, I don't think I will be buying them although I like their tastes as I have not been drinking milk since 10 years ago and I don't think I should start again now.
